At the Market

This Saturday is Bike Day at Midtown Farmers Market and we'll be there running the Bike Valet all morning. Whether you're looking for a way to get your veggies, berries, and baked goods home from the market via pedal-power, or just need a safe place to park your wheels while you shop—we've got you covered. We'll have a sampling of grocery panniers & shopping baskets on display as well as our carrot-colored cargo bike (The Bullitt, of course), a Brompton folding bike, and a utility bike ideally suited for market shopping. Fancy a test ride on the Brompton? Interested in finding a way to haul a canning session's worth of tomatoes by bike? We're happy to help.
